Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Etine Uton Eku (Hairstyles), 1974 by J. D. 'Okhai Ojeikere was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2020. The price achieved of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,234.52) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by J. D. 'Okhai Ojeikere achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hairstyles Series, 1968-1975 in May 2021 with an auction result of EUR 42,500.00.
